  1. 5 Foods That Whiten Your Teeth Naturally

  2. A big bright smile is one of those features that is desired amongst men and women alike. It’s an accessory we always have at hand, so it’s not surprising that we’re always looking for ways to enhance it! Not everyone has naturally white teeth and different factors such as smoking, drinking coffee or taking certain medication contribute to the much dreaded discolouration that gives our smile that not-so-attractive shade of beige. Besides whitening treatments carried out by professionals, you can also get a brighter smile by adjusting your diet and adding a few foods that whiten your teeth naturally. Read on to find out which foods to consume more often!

  3. Apples An apple per day keeps the... dentist away! Apples are one of the best foods for whitening teeth thanks to their high concentration of malic acid, which is also used in some toothpastes. This compound increases saliva production, which cleans the surface of the teeth and helps remove stains. Their texture also helps, as it scrubs away plaque and prevents the formation of tartar.

  4. Broccoli A good way to get whiter teeth is to eat broccoli. Extra points for eating it raw - the crunchy texture cleans the surface of the teeth! Broccoli contains Vitamin C and calcium, both very important for oral health. Furthermore, the iron component creates a wall of protection on the enamel, preventing damage from acids, staining and cavities.

  5. Strawberries Our favourite summer snack is not only delicious, but great for getting a whiter set of pearls. Like apples, strawberries contain malic acid, which promotes oral health. Furthermore, they are rich in antioxidants that help reduce bacteria and inflammation. The healthier your mouth is, the brighter your teeth!

  6. Cheese Here’s another reason to eat cheese (as if you needed one!): it’s packed with all the goodies that keep your teeth white and healthy, such as calcium and phosphorus. It’s also rich in proteins, which create a protective barrier on the enamel, and lactic acid, which prevents tooth decay. Cheese makes your mouth water, quite literally: it stimulates saliva and we all know by now how healthy that is for teeth.

  7. Baking Soda You know how baking soda is often used around the house for cleaning? Well, it’s quite good for cleaning your teeth as well, so you might want to replace toothpaste with it from time to time. It not only cleans the surface of the teeth very well, but it also scrubs off stains and gives your smile a new shine.

  8. Get in touch Include these foods in your diet and your white smile will turn heads everywhere you go! If you’re interested in professional teeth whitening treatments, make sure to get in touch with your friendly Goodna dentist!
